Photo of Bradlee B.'s yard after getting lawn care in Opelika, AL
Kyle absolutely crushed it on my lawn today! The grass was insanely thick, super wet, and should’ve been a nightmare to deal with—but he handled it like a total pro. He didn’t rush, took his time to get everything looking perfect, and even made sure the edges were clean and the clippings were fully picked up. You can tell he takes pride in his work. My yard looks the best it has all season—clean, sharp, and way better than I expected. He went above and beyond without a single complaint. If you want someone dependable, hardworking, and detail-oriented, Kyle’s your guy. Can’t recommend him enough!

Lawn Care in Opelika

Opelika boasts urban sophistication amidst verdant valleys and rolling hills. The city’s essence blends an industrial spirit with the beauty of green spaces marked by the well-preserved Victorian-era homes and modern structures like those found in Opelika Business Park.

Homeowners in Opelika face the challenge of maintaining their lawns in a climate characterized by hot, humid summers and mild winters. The region's rainfall can be ample, yet lawns require expert care to remain resilient during heat waves or unexpected dry spells.

LawnStarter provides professional lawn care fit for the local climate, helping homeowners overcome the challenges of lawn maintenance. Our pros handle the hard work so you have more free time to enjoy Opelika’s beauty and community life.

What You Should Know About Your Grass

Warm-season grasses grow best in Opelika, though some homeowners opt for tall fescue, a cool-season cultivar. Here are the most common grass types:

  • Bermudagrass: This turfgrass thrives in the sun and heat but has an aggressive growth habit. Fertilize and mow regularly, keeping your lawn between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
  • St. Augustinegrass: It forms dense carpets, tolerating shade, sun, and heat. Mow the lawn frequently at 3.5 to 4 inches, and watch out for soil compaction.
  • Tall fescue: This cool-season variety survives the winter months but goes dormant during the hot summers. Mow it frequently to keep it at 2 inches.
  • Centipedegrass: A low-maintenance turfgrass that withstands heat and sun but does not tolerate heavy foot traffic. Keep it between 1 and 2 inches.
  • Zoysiagrass: This dense variety requires sharp mower blades to keep it between 1 and 2 inches tall. It thrives in heat, sun, shade, and high-traffic areas.

How often should you mow your lawn? Mow every seven to 10 days from March to June. Increase your mowing sessions to weekly during the summer from July to August. Reduce your sessions to weekly or bi-weekly around mid-September until December when dormancy sets in.

Other Services We Offer

LawnStarter tailors a variety of services to enhance the living canvases across Opelika:

  • Weed control: Keep your lawn free from common weeds.
  • Aeration: Invigorate the soil to promote healthy growth akin to the local economy.
  • Landscaping: Custom garden designs mirror the visionary spirit of Opelika.
  • Aeration: Alabama soils are dense and prone to compaction. Our aeration services loosen tough soil so your turfgrass can thrive.
